It could be said to be quite malicious. After all, in the Previous Era, only after the Eighth Herrscher had been defeated did Fire Moth name her the Herrscher of Knowledge.
In Little Senti's words, simply comparing the strength of the Herrscher of Knowledge's authority would be too unfair to this newly born Eighth Herrscher, so she decided to compete with her in intelligence.
Chen Luo was truly speechless.
In Chen Luo's eyes, Little Senti was the most stereotypical foolish demon king from those Demon King and Hero games, the kind who sent people to deliver experience points to the hero.
I put so much effort into raising you into an SS-rank Talent Holder, not so you could compare IQ with the Eighth Herrscher!
"Hmm, were you badmouthing me?" The Herrscher of Knowledge frowned.
Chen Luo and the Herrscher of Knowledge were currently inside a dream constructed by the Herrscher of Knowledge, so she could still sense Chen Luo's ill intent toward her here.
"Obviously. I raised you into an SS-rank Talent Holder, and then you tell me you're not going to compete with her in Herrscher of Knowledge authority, but in intelligence? What were you thinking?" Chen Luo did not hide his disdain for Little Senti at all.
"Uh... you just don't get it, do you? Before raising my Herrscher abilities to SS rank, I didn't understand the gap between SS rank and S rank. If I still used Herrscher authority to crush her now, wouldn't that make me look like I was bullying a child?"
"But aren't you still suppressing her? You stole her dream."
"That's different. At least I didn't beat her up myself, right? Some things you may not use, but you can't not have them. If we were simply comparing intelligence, wouldn't that be boring?
